4.Side Scuba Diving for Beginners with Lunch and Transfers

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 23 reviews · 6 hours (approx.) · from $49Top rated

Try two guided scuba sessions in Side with hotel transfers, lunch, equipment, and patient instruction for beginners at a fair price.

“We first tried this beginner scuba diving tour in Alanya back in May and loved it, so we joined again now from Side — and it was just as fantastic. The pickup was smooth, the admission fee still felt fair for everything included, and the overall length of the visit was perfect for two relaxed dives and a nice lunch. The atmosphere was calm and enjoyable, not crowded at all, which made the experience even better for beginners. The staff were friendly, patient and made us feel completely safe both times. Definitely the best choice for anyone, especially friends, who want an easy, fun and memorable introduction to diving.”
